The Executive Committee of the International Economic History Association

defray the costs of participation. 
 
Scholars working in this field are encouraged to submit one copy of their 
papers to each of the organizers.  A selection of the received papers will 
be made on the basis of their merits, novelty, and adequacy to the 
session's topic.  The papers selected will be discussed in Munich, a 
revised version may be published, and an abstract will be included in the 
Congress proceedings.
